Does anyone ever actually buy this rag? I never want it and it's *free* when I'm offered it (hotels). Can you say "McPaper" ... I suppose if you're not traveling enough and you need a crappy paper to put down for your dog that this offer might be of interest...

I actually enjoy it, and just signed up for the free subscription. Of course, I read drivel and dreck as well. 
(Now I feel as if I should list the redeeming socially important stuff I read - but I won't.) Thanks, jsm.

I hate to inform you it is no longer laughed about and made fun of as it was when it first came out. USA today is delivered to the White House Staff and is said to be read by the President. I receive and read the Wall Street Journal, New York Times, and USA today. The paper has received many awards since the lowly begining by Al Newhart.

Thanks!
I just grabbed a subscription.
It'll make me feel like I'm in a hotel, even when I'm home.
(Though I do go out of my way to pick up a NY Times and Wall Street Journal when I'm traveling, rather than settling for USA Today..
